After finishing her coffee, Mary got up, took her CoffeeTop (a laptop) and made herself comfortable in the brown velvet armchair. "What is this 'coffee-bean virus?'" she thought. Mary recalled having seen it be mentioned on TV before — right before she switched it off. She didn't think it would be that big of a deal until now.

Mary opened her laptop and went straight to Coffoogle — the search browser she found most reliable— and searched for the coffee virus. She was shocked. The first thing that came up was a big brown banner, that said " COBED-13". Brown was Mary's favourite colour, but she never expected it to bring her such sadness.
Under the banner, were the saddest pictures Mary had ever seen— tonnes of coffee beans being thrown into the sea. Other pictures showed rotten looking coffee fruit. Mary had to look away for a second, she had never seen such a horrible thing in her life.
